Fufu to the world! Adeyemi on the verge of history with Borussia Dortmund

Fufu to the world! Adeyemi on the verge of history with Borussia Dortmund

Karim Adeyemi has turned up in style in the second half of the season to turn the fortunes of Borussia Dortmund around this season…

Karim Adeyemi is on the brink of history with Borussia Dortmund, with just three points separating them from a Bundesliga title, Soccernet.ng reports.

For the first time in over a decade, the Bundesliga might crown a league champion other than Bayern Munich, in a season that has seen Bayern, Dortmund, and possibly Union Berlin take the top place.

Dortmund took up the top place last weekend when Bayern lost to Leipzig at home earlier in the game week, and Borussia capitalised in style.

While the reigning Bundesliga winners are just two points behind Edin Terzi’s troops, who now lead the German Bundesliga with 70 points, Dortmund would win the Bundesliga title for the first time in 12 years if they defeated Mainz. However, Bayern will be declared the Bundesliga winners if Dortmund loses and Bayern wins.

Adeyemi, meanwhile, has been in excellent form since the turn of the year, after going deadlocked in the first half of the Bundesliga season. Adeyemi opted to play for Germany, although he has maintained links to his Nigerian heritage.

The 21-year-old scored a belter in February against Chelsea and mentioned in a post-match interview with CBS Sports Golazo on how his father’s genes and fufu, an indigenous Nigerian meal, give him an athletic edge to help beat his opponents.

He has also been seen in several videos online, eating fufu, and looks proud to still hold on to his Nigerian side.

“I eat a lot of African foods. It is called fufu, and it’s a Nigerian food which is very good.” he said.

Adeyemi has scored six goals and assisted another five since the start of the Rückrunde, won the rookie of the Bundesliga season, and is set to become a German champion, should Borussia Dortmund defeat Mainz in the last game week of the season.
